TO ALL BIDDERS:

Below are changes and or clarifications to the bid documents for this project. This Addendum forms a part of the Contract Documents and modifies the original bidding documents as noted below.

BID FORM REVISIONS:

1. A revised Bid Form is attached. Bids must be submitted on the revised Bid Form.

QUESTIONS RECEIVED:

Q1. Good afternoon, I am a perspective, bidder for the above mentioned project. I have a question about line item 19, Road Repair (crooked pine road). I read through the specs and I have looked at the plans and I may have over looked it but I didn’t find anything addressing what will be expected. I also believe that this is a privately owned roadway which could possibly entail long term maintenance of the road. Will we be required to place ABC stone, and if so at what thickness?

A1. Under 01 27 00, the Road Repair (Crooked Pine Road) line item includes maintaining the road and fixing existing potholes during the life of Construction. The contractor shall plan and construct work so as to cause minimum inconvenience to the owner(s) and the public. Perform grading of Crooked Pines after Construction using a motor grader and repair all potholes along Crooked Pine Road with minimum of 6 inches of compacted

ABC.

Q2. Is a geotechnical report available for this job?

A2. No geotechnical report is available.

Q3. How will additional unsuitable material, undercut, stone, and geogrid beyond 280 CY be paid?

A3. Additional unsuitable material, undercut, stone, and geogrid is an incidental item intended to be used when compaction over the installed water main cannot be achieved.. A change order will be required for any quantities going over 280 CY.

AD-2

Q4. The specifications state that all utility locates must be completed and verified prior to the pre-construction meeting. Please clarify whether the Contractor is responsible for verifying all public and private utility locations prior to NTP, and what level of verification is required.

A4. This requirement is part of the NCDOT encroachment agreement. The preconstruction meeting with NCDOT will occur after NTP. Use NC 811 services.

Q5. Will all easements, rights-of-way, and temporary construction easements be fully acquired and accessible prior to Notice to Proceed?

A5. All easements, rights-of-way, and temporary construction easements will be fully acquired and accessible prior to Notice to Proceed.

Q6. Specifications states that, In some cases other work is being performed on site by Owner as a separate contract. Are there any active or planned projects occurring in the project corridor that may impact access, traffic control, sequencing, utility availability, or productivity?

A6. There are no other projects being performed under a separate contract in the project area.

Q7. Are surveys, GPS collection, certified as-builts, GIS deliverables, and electronic record drawings incidental to the contract, or are they compensated separately?

A7. They are incidental to the contract, see Section 01 70 00 Para. 1.6. for requirements.

Q8. Bid Item No. 26 includes one Temporary Construction Entrance. The project drawings appear to indicate two Temporary Construction Entrances. Please clarify the required quantity. If two entrances are required, will the bid schedule be revised by addendum prior to bid opening?

A8. The bid form has been updated to show two construction entrances.

Q9. Please clarify the scope of required as-built documentation and whether survey, GPS, GIS, and record drawing preparation are incidental to the contract.

A9. Per Section 01 70 00 Para 1.6.F:

Certified, surveyed record drawings (“as-built” plans), sealed by licensed

Professional Engineer and Professional Land Surveyor, shall be furnished to

CFPUA by the Engineer of Record upon completions and acceptance of the infrastructure by CFPUA. The “as-built" checklist included herein.

The contractor is responsible for supplying the Professional Land Surveyor and as-built survey.

AD-3

Q10. Is the Existing 16" Water Line restrained at the blow off? Or will restraints need to be added before 16" x 6" Fire Hydrant Assembly is installed?

A10. The existing 16” water main is fully restrained at the blow off. For all other areas of restraint, install per the plans.
